Baxter won, he's a tough guy with those legs. I'm happy to see that he does not allow the loss of a limb prevent him from kicking a$$.

I am deeply in bed with Nikon ... for auxiliary boxing and UFC, I dopped $4800 on a used Nikon 400mm f/2.8 AFS II lens. What a sweet freaking lens ...

UFC 100 was the first time I used it.

For indoor sports, you need at a minimum, 1/500 of a second. To get that, a fast lens, and good low-noise body is mandatory. For UFC 100, I shot 1/640, f/2.8, at ISO 1250. You can see how bright the photos are.

aye they are great pics too, how come you didn't post them before?! do alot of people buy fight pictures? I can't imagine there being a huge market, but if there is then... well played.

Did you go to the Hatton v Pacquaio fight? I would love to see those photos if you did.

Not too many buy photo prints, a small handfull, and then, only the fighters or family.

Yes, I shot the Hatton / Pacquiao and De La Hoya / Pacquiao - check the boxing category on http://www.ultravista.com
